An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being

Episode 369: Invitation

"And so, Luck realized it can transfer with just Kagema."

 I called everyone to the Satou Family house at the end of school the next day as an emergency summons.

""Eeeeeeeeehhhhhhhh!?""

 As expected, everyone shouts in surprise.

"With this, if there is a Kagema, we can go around almost unlimitedly without Luck."

"That gives everyone more freedom than ever before!!"

"That's right."

 If you have a Kagema nearby, you can go almost anywhere. You don't need to be picked up by Luck every time, and waste is reduced.

 It's incredibly convenient.

 And what becomes possible by raising the level of teleportation is that if we attach a Kagema to an outsider, that person will be able to do the same work as us.

"And so, we also have schoolwork now, it can't be helped, so I would like to make a proposal to increase the number of hands."

"I see. But, who are we recruiting?"

 Right, the five of us are too few to travel around the world. We desperately need numbers.

 However, few people can be trusted.

 Well then, what should we do.

"Let's invite the Elves."

 Right, it doesn't have to be human. The elves are ones who worship me as their King. Compared to humans, the chances of them betraying us would be overwhelmingly small.

""Huuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhh!?""

 My proposal once again surprises everyone.

"No, but you can trust them, right?"

 Everyone is surprised, but there is no one more trustworthy than those guys.

"I know that, but what about their looks."

 That certainly is a problem.

 They have pointed ears, and they are too beautiful after having evolved into High Elves.

"Can't magic do something about that? Let's ask them."

 However, there may have been times when they lived among humans, and with regards to their appearance, it seems that the magic of the Elves might have managed it somehow.

"Haa ... Right. It doesn't take that long to just ask, so let's go."

"That's right."

 Rei agrees to just ask, and we immediately transfer to the Elf Forest.

"It's our King. Nice to see you."

 As soon as we enter the forest, the Chief immediately senses us and kneels before us.

 I asked him to stop, but he told me it was impossible, so I let it go.

"Ahh. Please stand and raise your head. You look like you're doing well."

"Umu. Thanks to the King and the others, we're too energetic and it's troublesome."

 When the Elves stand up and look around at everyone's faces, the Chief shrugs his shoulders with a wry smile.

 Several other Elves greet us, but they all look glamorous. Especially the female Elves. I feel like their skin seems different.

 I wonder if something happened.

"Well, I think it's good that you're fine."

"That's right, but ... Putting that aside, what do you need today?"

 The Chief looks a little distant at my words. However, he quickly changes his mindset and asks what we are here for.

"Ahh. I have a request for everyone."

"We accept it."

 When I start talking about the reason for our visit, the Chief accepts my request without even asking for details.

 He's too quick to answer.

"Eh!? I haven't said anything yet?"

"The King's words are absolute. We are willing to lend our strength no matter what."

 I continue to talk while being perplexed, but it seems that them accepting the job has already been decided.

 I wonder why everyone is so extremely loyal, including Luck.

"Haa ... I understand, but, I want everyone to listen to the story once?"

"Alright. Let's gather everyone's things."

"Please."

 After sighing in amazement, I am guided to the village.

"The King has a request for us!! Everyone listen carefully!!"

""Yes!!""

 When we arrive at the village, as soon as we arrive, the Elves in the village come out of nowhere and everyone in the current neighborhood gathers.

"Right now we are ..."

 When I stand in front of the Elves, I explain the activities we are doing now and tell them that we need help.

"We can do anything about our appearances with spirit magic, so there's no problem."

 As expected, it seems that an Elf's appearance can be managed with magic.

 The problem is resolved in seconds.

"I understand. You don't know about the current situation on Earth, do you?"

"That's right. We spent hundreds of years in the forest."

 The Elves have not been able to grasp the current state of the Earth.

 First of all, life has changed completely in a few hundred years, so it might be better to hold a workshop around that.

 Although there is no problem with moving around using Luck's Kagema, there may be times when they may interact with the client alone. Even if they usually live in this forest, it would be better to get used to modern life.

"Is that so. Well then, first of all let's start by checking everyone's explorer aptitude. Without this, activities would be difficult."

"As you wish."

"Rei, can I ask you?"

"Leave it to me."

 At any rate, if they don't have the explorer aptitude, it's useless.

 When I ask Rei to check their explorer aptitude, she found that their aptitude rate was 100%.

 All of the Elves have the explorer aptitude.
